"Air Supply" fate description is misleading

The North Shroud fate "Air supply" reads:

"The Gods' Quiver seeks volunteers to join a raid of the Ixali logging grounds, the main targets being not the Ixal themselves, but the airstones the swiftbeaks use to give their war balloons flight."

But after destroying all the boxes the fate is not complete. Some ixal spawn after destroying them and they need to be killed, and there's nothing distinguishing them from the regular ixal in the area that also have a fate marker. So that description is misleading and we won't be able to complete the fate unless we google it.

Either something is lost in translation or the original description in Japanese is misleading too.

I admit this one got me as well.

Mind you, when it didn't register as complete my default position was to kill everything and see what happens.

You didn't sing "All Out of Love," that was the problem.

After the airstones are destroyed, kill the Swiftbeaks

This solution is implied by the text:

The Swiftbeaks aren't the main targets, but if they come after you after you destroy their airstones, maybe kill them.

It could be clearer, sure. But if you don't infer that you're supposed to kill them, there's always:

The description doesn't necessarily need to be changed; a Swiftbeak kill counter in the tracker might be the least ambiguous solution.

I feel like that isn't enough, given ARR's love of applying the "FATE enemy" marker over standard enemies within the FATE zone but not having kills of those enemies apply to the FATE completion gauge. It means you learn to not bother with enemies that are in the area but not specified as your target.

I might be wrong but don't the ones that spawn after you've destroyed the supplies instantly agro you? If not instantly pop onto your enmity list?
